NYCC 2012: An Impression of Sunday

Yesterday was the last day of this year’s New York Comic Con and like on the other days, Garrett was there to take pictures, collect material for future articles, buy a lot of books, and simply have a blast. Today’s pictures feature board games, a very tall Supergirl, and Dr. Who.

Most pictures, however, feature the Geek Geek Revolution panel, where Myke Cole (Control Point), Anton Strout (Alchemystic), Beth Revis (Across the Universe), and Andrea Cremer (Nightshade) pitched their geek knowledge against each other. They had to answer questions like, “How many glasses did Daniel Radcliff go through over the course of filming?”—the answer is 160!—and, “In The Empire Strikes back, what does the acronym AT-AT stand for?”—All-Terrain Armored Transport. At the end of the panel, the audience could ask questions as well, and whoever stumped all four panelists won a bag of books.

The panel was won by Andrea Cremer, and gloriously lost by Myke Cole.
